Description

Welcome to Orange Tree House where we specialise in making your wedding day one to truly remember. Orange Tree House is a private wedding venue nestled on the shores of Strangford Lough in the pretty village of Greyabbey. With the oldest parts being over 200 years old, the venue is steeped in history and has a wonderful atmosphere. The property has been lovingly restored and, should you choose to have your wedding here, you will be helping us to preserve this important building for future generations to enjoy   We believe in "Your day, your way". Whether you opt for a traditional, elegant wedding or take a more alternative approach, we will endeavour to accommodate your plans. We provide all of your catering, bar, furniture, tableware etc. so all you need to do is choose your date, menu and drinks then relax and enjoy your day.   As well as having the beautiful stone barn style banqueting room with its exposed beams at your disposal, you and your guests can enjoy the Orangerie with its open fire. You can sip a cocktail or two in our stunning guest lounge which overlooks Strangford Lough (a designated area of outstanding natural beauty) and onwards towards Whiterock Bay, with the Dromara Hills and the Mourne Mountains as a backdrop. Here you can also relax and enjoy the amazing sunsets, whatever the weather.   The function room can comfortably accommodate up to 130 guests for ceremonies and dinner with room for extra evening guests up to a total of around 160. We are also perfect for more intimate weddings with smaller guest numbers. We have over 100 bed spaces within a 5 minute radius, many within walking distance and are located half an hour from Belfast.   We would be delighted to show you around and discuss your plans!

Everything about the venue was outstanding!
The food was second to none! Everyone was so well fed the whole day, the quality was unreal and I think it's the first time I've ever come home from a wedding so full! The bar and waiting staff were just a pleasure to have around and I had so many guests tell me how lovely they all were, you guys are so lucky to have such a fab wee team in Orange Tree! I'm praying that someone I know decides to get married at Orange Tree House so I can come back and spend another day there.

We could not be more thankful for everything.
The whole team at Orange Tree are second to none! We loved every minute of our day. We are so happy with how everything turned out. The running of things was impeccable. Michael is an expert MC and put us both at ease. The whole front of house team was amazing on the day! We always knew Orange Tree was special but we felt truly like we weren’t just a number! Could not have picked a more perfect venue! And Chelsea, thank you for making the whole admin side of things so easy!

It truly was the best day of our lives!
We wanted to take the time to thank you for everything on the run up to and on the big day itself! It truly was the best day of our lives, made better thanks to all of your expertise and guidance. Chelsea, thank you for being so organised and responsive to emails, and Michael for keeping everything running smoothly on the day, as well as all your fabulous staff; from start to finish we felt like we were in such safe hands. We truly couldn't have wished for a better day!

The venue is absolutely stunning and magical!
Every corner of the place exuded charm and elegance, making it the ideal setting for our special day. This was the first venue we viewed when wedding planning, and we immediately knew it was the place for us. It was perfect because not only was the venue unique, but it was also dog friendly, allowing our beloved fur babies to be part of our big day. From the minute we booked Orange Tree House, the staff truly went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect. They catered for our every need

Thank you from the bottom of our very happy hearts
We just wanted to say a huge thank you for everything, to say our day was perfect thanks to the whole team at Orange Tree House is actually an understatement. From the moment we went to book a viewing, to picking up our things the day after the wedding, you were all so warm and helpful. What an incredible venue and team, we’re so glad we picked you, every single member of the team was so friendly and happy and helpful on the day!

Thank you for the most amazing wedding day!
Your help while we were planning our wedding, answering all of our questions, was so appreciated and allowed us to feel very relaxed throughout the wedding planning process. And we can’t even begin to thank you enough for everything on the day. Michael seemed almost as excited about the day at our set up meeting as we were, which helped to contribute to the loveliest vibe. All of the staff were so friendly, nothing was any trouble and helped everything run so smoothly.

We didn't have to worry about a single thing.
Our dream day was made possible by everyone at Orange Tree. The day was above and beyond what we both could have imagined, everything was absolutely perfect. On the lead up, Chelsea was at hand to answer any queries and on the day Michael was amazing and so attentive in ensuring we were having the best day possible. The food was also incredible! We had so many compliments on the venue, the staff and everything in between so thank you to everyone at Orange Tree.
